Reply to comment by h0pedivision in If Fetterman resigns, who would Shapiro appoint? I’m kind of obsessed with Giselle Fetterman. by [deleted]

It’s really not that. I have just been so impressed with her on the campaign trail. I get these little quirks. I wanted H Clinton to win the primary and the general in 2008 just so we would have Bush 41, Clinton 42, Bush 43;, Clinton 44. And school kids would have to learn who each of the 4 was and their connections

No offense but this kind of idolization is just unhealthy

So you voted for someone because it would create a sort of pattern? Do you think school kids would only learn about who each of the 4 were just because of said pattern? Not because they are um, US presidents?

You're essentially reducing these women to who they were married to, no matter their own achievements. I get you have good intentions but you really need to look at the responses and downvotes you're getting and re-evaluate how you approach these situations.

I don’t think you can say that I am reducing Clinton to who she was married to. She had achievements in her own right. She was a strong contender for the nomination in 2008, and went on to win the nomination in 2016.

Giselle Fetterman doesn’t have political experience, but from the time John Fetterman suffered the stroke, I believe she acted as his campaign manager and chief adviser. I know there was at least one time that they were walking together after an event and reporters were shouting questions. Since John Fetterman needs talk to text as an adaptation, he would not be able to answer when multiple questions are being shouted simultaneously. And it was her who said “we aren’t taking questions.” I guess she wouldn’t be the best pick at this time, but if she wanted to get into politics and she paid her dues by starting small, I think she could be successful.

No, not young grasshopper. But something a little more common among Reddit subs. Think small and hairy. Pretty clever.
